Developmental Research Project Program

发展研究项目计划（DRPP）是INBRE的一个新的强制性组成部分 目标是选择和支持怀俄明州INBRE科学主题中最有前途的研究 “心脏代谢综合征”和“慢性病研究和治疗技术”。我们的目标是 通过为教师和学生提供研究机会，并要求 卓越研究的标准。这两个主题都解决了怀俄明州相当重要的健康问题 INBRE的目标是建立一个跨学科的合作研究团队，以开发和应用新的目标 和解决棘手的生物医学问题的工具。这两个主题足够广泛， 大多数最有成效的研究人员，但足够具体，以确定一个重点领域，以招聘教师 并建立研究生培训项目。DRPP需要：1）提供内部机制（内部 资助机会公告），以获得和授予多学科发展研究 项目，2）审查并优先考虑这些项目的资金，3）制定一个计划，为他们的一般辅导，和4） 提供监督和评估，并确保其完全符合所有适用的联邦政策，规则， 以及涉及人类受试者、脊椎动物和/或生物危害的研究指南。一个主要 DRPP面临的挑战是让社区大学合作伙伴（怀俄明州的初级本科生）参与进来 机构），以加强整个国家的生物医学研究。DRPP提供了几个 促进PUI牵头机构和合作机构之间研究合作的机制。克服 PUI研究人员的主要障碍是由于他们的研究被孤立，缺乏机构支持， 研究在PUI环境中，教学是主要责任，我们将增加资源 分配给PUI，并通过以下方式促进INBRE资助的UW调查人员和PUI教师之间的合作： 增加合作赠款的数量，要求华盛顿大学的研究人员将其研究经费的10% 奖励PUI合作，并增加INBRE网络研讨会、培训和联网的数量 活动，以增加跨网络的互动。DRPP建立了一个内部机制， 补助金申请，审查和优先考虑申请。DRPP提供了一个一般指导计划， 职业发展，教师保留和评估，以及符合所有适用的保证 联邦政策、规则和指导方针。这些方法提供了一个循序渐进的机制， PUI教师和学生进入生物医学研究，并促进初级研究人员的职业发展， 网络上的竞争研究。

SUMMARY: The Developmental Research Project Program (DRPP) is a new mandatory component for INBRE 3 with a goal to select and support the most promising research within the Wyoming INBRE scientific themes of “cardiometabolic syndrome” and “technology for chronic disease research and therapeutics”. Our goal is to augment and strengthen the Network by providing research opportunities to faculty and students and requiring standards for research excellence. Both themes tackle rather significant health issues in the State of Wyoming and the INBRE goal is to build a collaborative interdisciplinary research team to develop and apply new targets and tools to address intractable biomedical problems. These two themes are sufficiently broad to include the majority of the most productive researchers, yet specific enough to define an area of emphasis to recruit faculty and build graduate training programs. The DRPP is required to: 1) provide an internal mechanism (internal Funding Opportunity Announcement) for obtaining and awarding multidisciplinary developmental research projects, 2) review and prioritize those projects for funding, 3) develop a plan for their general mentoring, and 4) offer oversight, and evaluation, as well as assure their full compliance with all applicable federal policies, rules, and guidelines for research involving human subjects, vertebrate animals, and/or biohazards. One major challenge for the DRPP is to engage the community college partners (Wyoming's Primarily Undergraduate Institutions) in an effort to enhance biomedical research across the state. The DRPP offers several mechanisms to foster research collaborations between the lead and partner PUI institutions. To overcome the major barriers for PUI researchers due to being isolated in their research and lack of institutional support for research in a PUI environment where teaching is the primary responsibility, we will increase resources allocated to PUIs and facilitate collaboration between INBRE funded UW investigators and PUI faculty by increasing the number of collaborative grants available, requiring UW investigators to dedicate 10% of their award to PUI collaboration, and increasing the number of INBRE Network workshops, trainings and networking events to increase cross network interaction. The DRPP has established an internal mechanism for soliciting grant applications, reviewing and prioritizing applications. The DRPP offers a plan for general mentoring, career development, faculty retention, and evaluation, as well as assurance in compliance with all applicable federal policies, rules, and guidelines. These approaches provide a step-by-step mechanism to better engage PUI faculty and students into biomedical research and foster career development of junior investigators for competitive research across the network.
